Overview
Sharpen Skills with Breast Imaging CME
Breast cancer is one of radiology’s most common — and most litigated — diagnoses. The 9th edition of Topics in Breast Imaging goes beyond routine updates to spotlight the breakthroughs and pitfalls shaping your practice today.
In this online video CME course, Dr. R. James Brenner and a nationally recognized faculty from UC San Diego, Weill Cornell, City of Hope® Cancer Center, and Mayo Clinic employ real-world cases, expert commentary, and imaging–histopathology correlations to help you sharpen interpretations, strengthen recommendations, and avoid the medico-legal missteps that cause most malpractice claims. Through 31 evidence-based continuing medical education lectures, you’ll explore:
- AI & Liability: Where AI truly helps, where it introduces risk, and what this means for your medico-legal exposure
- MRI Everywhere: From staging and recurrence detection to diffusion applications and incidental findings
- Biopsy vs. Surveillance: When “watchful waiting” is safer than intervention
- Special Circumstances: Pregnancy-associated breast cancer and imaging for transgender patients
